Extra-sectoral activities affecting forests

Is there a stakeholder consultation process on decisions between different development options?

With regard to Indigenous Peoples, the process of consultation set by the Agreement 169 of the International Labour Organization (ILO) has not been implemented. Currently, different Law Projects on the issue are awaiting judgement or debate in the Congress.
It is worth noting that, in accordance with the Alternative Report 2009 on the fulfilment of the Agreement 169 of ILO on Indigenous and Tribal Peoples in Peru, the existing rules for participation, applicable to mining and oil-extraction activities, wouldn't meet the requirements of a free prior and informed consultation. The same would be the case for the rules for citizen participation in the implementation of power-generation activities.
